Falkirk face a trip to Kilmarnock at Rugby Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Bairns will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 39 and win only 9 of the 70 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in March 2006, the Killie carving out a narrow 2 - 1 victory in a Scottish Premier match.
